The Little Gym is not a serious gymnastics place. The often very young coaches, mostly never spot my children during tumbling excercises. So for months, my kids just practice cartwheels on the floor with no spotter. They are spotted on the bars and beam. But their progress is very slow on the floor. I think I will move the kids to GymCarolina where there is more hands-on instruction and techniques more sophisticated. \r

The dance classes are not taught by a ""real"" dancer. \r

A couple times, when I sit and watch the kids practicing, I heard the girls behind the desk gossiping. Some of the staff I am very comfortable with. Dave is very good. Some of the staff I am a touch uncomfortable with. \r

Some children do benefit from this fun environment, my main reason for going here was the convenience.
Pros: fun
Cons: does not use professional coaches
